At a private event on Tuesday night in New York City, just a couple of hours before the start of his birthday, Puff Daddy announced that he's set to release a free mixtape called MMM—it stands for Money Making Mitch, a reference to Mekhi Phifer's character in Paid In Full. The tape is scheduled to premiere at 7 a.m est and each of the 12 tracks will be matched with all original visuals. Future, French Montana, and Jadakiss all appear on the tape, and Pharrell and Mike WiLL Made-It had a hand in its production. The project is apparently the penultimate release before Puff drops No Way Out 2, which he says will be the last of his storied career.
Below, peep the MMM's tracklist and a letter from Puff which was given out at the event.

The Letter:
"Money Making Mitch is this fairy tale you know, about this fly nigga from Harlem that came up and he did his thing man he was shining on them, stylin on them.
Showin them how to do it.
Showin them how to get it.
Maybe he was getting in the wrong way, but you know, the fairy tale of it, is most brothers and sisters end up dead or in jail.
But check this out with this fairy tale that I created in my brain imagine if Mitch lived, survived, took those different talents and attributes and business skills and applied it to the world of business. Maned the game.
The legal game.
So this is the fairy tale man and fairy tales do come true.
Cuz we got millions of cats that's comin up with that hustlers spirit and drive they got that Mitch in them and they ain't going to fall to the waste side. They going to take those street smarts and run the world because:
The Black Man is God and NO WAY OUT 2
That's how I'ma leave it on you.
Peace."
